Georgia Aquarium is the largest aquarium in the Western Hemisphere, and the second largest in the world.
In ten million gallons of water, you will see unique displays of whale sharks, beluga whales, bottlenose dolphins, and manta rays, which have a thirteen-foot wingspan.
Opened in 2005, the aquarium is a newcomer on the Atlanta tourist scene, but millions visit it annually.
The dolphin stadium holds 20-30 minute dolphin shows that are unrivaled anywhere, and its collection of mostly mammalian animals such as sea otters, beluga whales, and African penguins is the centerpiece of the fabulous aquarium.
There are also dynamic displays of tropical fish from the South Pacific Ocean, and a North American fish tank that visitors can walk under and get a unique view of familiar fish from below.
